Ahhh. The scintilating humor one would expect from Nathan Mates. I pitty
you if you're still using lynx. But then, since this site is so bad, why
are you bothering with it?

Don't you love these broad categorisations? "his site is always poor"

And of course you'd rather whine to the internet community then bother to
tell him about the problem. Exactly the same that happened with Steven
Metz-something-or-other. You just start shooting your mouth off about him
before you bother to check the facts, such as actually getting in contact
with him.

IYHO. Which, quite frankly, counts for very little. Yours is one of the
opinions I'm least likely to count before making my own decisions. And I'm
especially not going to think a site bad just because you can't view it
under lynx.
